### Structure expressions

There are several forms of structure expressions. A _structure expression_
consists of the [path](#paths) of a [structure item](#structures), followed by
consists of the [path](#paths) of a [structure item](#structs), followed by
a brace-enclosed list of one or more comma-separated name-value pairs,
providing the field values of a new instance of the structure. A field name
can be any identifier, and is separated from its value expression by a colon.
The location denoted by a structure field is mutable if and only if the
enclosing structure is mutable.

A _tuple structure expression_ consists of the [path](#paths) of a [structure
item](#structures), followed by a parenthesized list of one or more
item](#structs), followed by a parenthesized list of one or more
comma-separated expressions (in other words, the path of a structure item
followed by a tuple expression). The structure item must be a tuple structure
item.

A _unit-like structure expression_ consists only of the [path](#paths) of a
[structure item](#structures).

The following are examples of structure expressions:

### Recursive types

Nominal types — [enumerations](#enumerated-types) and
[structures](#structure-types) — may be recursive. That is, each `enum`
[structs](#structure-types) — may be recursive. That is, each `enum`
constructor or `struct` field may refer, directly or indirectly, to the
enclosing `enum` or `struct` type itself. Such recursion has restrictions:

### Pointer types

All pointers in Rust are explicit first-class values. They can be copied,
stored into data structures, and returned from functions. There are two
stored into data structs, and returned from functions. There are two
varieties of pointer in Rust:
